A prospective evaluation of ultrasound as a diagnostic tool in acute microcrystalline arthritis. [PDF]
The performance of ultrasound (US) in the diagnosis of acute gouty (MSU) arthritis and calcium pyrophosphate (CPP) arthritis is not yet well defined. Most studies evaluated US as the basis for diagnosing crystal arthritis in already diagnosed cases of ...

The main features of late‐onset rheumatoid arthritis (LORA), manifesting after age 65, are acute onset, higher disease activity, systemic involvement, and less presence of autoantibodies. Management requires individualized strategies, balancing aggressive treat‐to‐target therapy in robust patients with frailty‐focused approaches to prevent geriatric ...

CARTILLAGE MICROCRYSTALLIZATION PHENOMENON IN COXARTHROSIS AND AVASCULAR NECROSIS OF FEMORAL HEAD
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most prevalent pathology in routine rheumatologic practice. The concept of calcium-containing crystals deposition within articular cartilage and paraarticular tissues remains the centerpiece among existing theories on the ...

Genetics of chondrocalcinosis [PDF]
Rapid developments in genetic analysis have enabled the dissection of a variety of arthropathies that are inherited in a Mendelian manner. These disorders include calcium crystal arthropathies such as calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate deposition (CPPD) disease and hydroxyapatite deposition disease. In CPPD disease, mutations in a recently discovered gene,

Objective Crowned dens syndrome (CDS), caused by calcium pyrophosphate or hydroxyapatite deposition around the odontoid process, is an under‐recognized cause of acute severe neck pain and headache. It can closely mimic septic arthritis, osteomyelitis, giant cell arteritis (GCA), polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR), or cervical spondylitis. We report a case of
